Nashville quartet Kings of Leon have cut short their July-29 show in Dallas due to lead vocalist Caleb Followill feeling "ill". Despite claims during the concert that he was not drunk, comments from brother Jared suggests there is some kind of concern for the frontman.

Admitting that Caleb was "a little unfit" to continue the gig, the bassist went on to tell the crowd "It’s Caleb. He can’t play the rest of the show. We will be back as soon as possible. I know you guys hate us. I’m so sorry." As the crowd grew more frustrated, as did Jared with a parting "F*cking hate Caleb, not us".

At least have the decency to cancel before a show if you're legitimately sick. King Diamond did that on the one and only opportunity I had to see him and I never begrudged him for that. It's just cleaner than showing up and then disappearing like an asshole.
